2022 Caterpillar Orange Peel Grapples GSH525 5-TINE, 950-LITER

Cat® GSH Orange Peel Grapples include models and sizes for a wide range of applications. With faster cycle times and increased capacities, GSH Grapples allow you to move more while spending less. A more efficient product design increases the grapple's overall productivity and reduces maintenance costs.

Features may include:

• Move more tons per hour with faster cycle times.

• Increase hydraulic flow capacity up to 160 percent with a new rotation system.

• Improve your overall fill factor up to 140-200 percent because of refined tine curvature.

• Cat Machines are pre-programmed with optimum performance settings for your grapple to maximize the pairing and efficiency of the machine and grapple.

• Reach new heights and increase your swing control. The compact height of GSH grapples extends your capabilities and is ideal for indoor applications.

• Grapple life is prolonged because of lighter, force distributing cast pieces in place of welds.

• Prevent cylinders from overextending, and avert unnecessary wear on hinge points and tine tips with heavy duty, abrasion resistant upper and lower stops on the grapple's housing.

• Strength you can count on. Solid construction inner tines and tips are built of high grade steel, resisting abrasion and metal-on-metal wear. Hinge points are cast eliminating weak points on the frame.

• Increase wear life with easy to replace, cast tine tips.

• Spend more time working with decreased maintenance time.Usage before first service interval is increased up to 250 percent and ground level grease points are safer and easier to use.

• Integral hydraulic components have been rerouted and are protected inside the tine, decreasing tension on hoses and eliminating interference with materials.

• Easy, inside-the-tine access to the hydraulics through removable panels. Panels also include dust seals to protect the critical parts inside the tines.

• Maintain a safe working environment by using the Mounting Bracket Aid which allows the bracket to stay in an upright position while installing the grapple to the machine.

• Meet your specific application needs with 4 or 5-tine models.

• Four tines - square footprint, clean corners in rail cars and trailers. Safe grab closure for bulky goods such as car bodies.

• Five tines - optimal retention of smaller materials.

• Semi-open tines work best for applications where larger steel scrap or car bodies are being moved.

• Closed tines are optimal in instances where smaller, shredded materials are the primary use.

• GSH420 and GSH520 models now come with a standard lift eye on the bottom side of the housing where a magnet can be mounted.

• Other GSH models have the option of including a lift eye when ordering the grapple.
